The TMR-03GB Gear Dump (ギアダンプ) is a transport that is part of Machine Robo Rescue.

It is the transport unit for the Yellow Gears team and is normally piloted by Sayuri Suizenji and Ken Minami. Its' vehicle mode is modelled on a dumper truck and can travel over numerous surfaces. It can be converted into Gear Dump Robo (ギアダンプロボ) to use its' tremendous physical strength, but this is an arduous process requiring two people to physically turn a pair of wheels.

The Gear Dump was first deployed to deliver the Drill Team to Tokyo in order to save most of the cadets and Musashi Miyajima when a Gura Gorro attacked them. It's Party Time! Drill Robo It again took the Drill Team into action for the less drastic purpose of helping locate Hideki's cat Laura Emergency! Enter Battalion and also when all three MRR units were called in to help out during the eruption of Kaga Mountain. Aim to be a Robo Master! Gear Dump was also used to transport the team to Egypt when Saki Murayoshi became trapped inside a pyramid in Saqqara. Daichi, Shō and Ken were sent inside while Sayuri stayed outside with the girl's father. However, the operation came under attack from a Gura Gorro, meaning Drill Robo had to hold the pyramid. The Gura Gorro then attacked him but Sayuri climbed onboard Gear Dump and rammed the Disaster out of the way, buying time for those inside to get out. Laughter Can Save the World!

It was then used to transport Yellow Gears to Marine Park, which was being weakened by a Gura Gorro. First Drill and then Fire Robo attempted to hold the structure in place before Sayuri and Ken converted Gear Dump to robot mode, with the huge robot able to support the amusement park and even move it back into its' original position. Call Out! Gear Dump Robo This was later selected as a Dynamic Moment by Charmy Sato for his Who's the MVP? awards show. MRR 24 Hours Gear Dump Robo was again activated when Colonel Hazard and a Gura Gorro tried to disrupt the filming of the Ninja Mama movie, using its' powerful arms to hold the latter safely until the Drill Team could clear bystanders. I am the Mother of Daichi A Gear Dump conversion simulator was part of Professor Tōru Suidōbashi's Hyper Disaster Prevention House at the Machine AI Laboratory. The Mysterious Superhero Captain Miracle Gear Dump Robo was again activated to answer an emergency at Hayami Heavy Industries Daichi's Resolution and once again at the Kansai Disaster Prevention Festival, though the latter was unplanned and a rest of Alice getting carried away in front of a crowd, necessitating quick work from Sayuri and Lin.

When Hell Island appeared over Kanameshima all of MRR were scrambled to stop it. However, the island was soon revealed to just be a shell around the powerful body of Kaiser-G. Activate, Kaiser-G! After Jet Robo and V Stealth Robo were taken out the rest of MRR could do little but evacuate the civilians onboard the transports and try to keep up with the chain of damage Kaiser-G caused on his way to Tokyo. A Looming Catastrophe! MRR set out to stop them at full strength, with Alice and Tsuyoshi even activating Gear Dump Robo. However, Kaiser-G's gravity powers prevented them approaching. It would take the combined efforts of Hyper Shuttle Robo, V Stealth Robo and Machine Commander Robo to finally stop the Disasters leader. All Hands on Deck, Save the Planet!

  • Gear Dump Robo (2003)
    • Accessories:
Gear Dump Robo was released in Bandai's Machine Robo Rescue toyline in April 2003, and converts from robot to dumper truck mode. In vehicle mode Gear Dump Robo can carry Drill Robo in a compartment behind the grill and the Bulldozer Robo in the bucket on the back. Gear Dump is decidedly different from the other transports, with a simpler robot mode and transformation, and a notably simpler way of storing Supporter Robo, who just connect to posts in the bucket. The arms involve parts forming, with the bucket simply detaching and splitting in half before plugging into the sides of the cab. On the plus side he has big grabby hands. The toy retailed at ¥4980.
  • Like the rest of Machine Robo Rescue, Gear Dump Robo was not released outside of Japan.


Notes[edit | edit source]

  • Supplemental material gives the Gear Dump's length as 24.8m, width as 16.4m, height as 12m and weight as 398t. In Gear Dump Robo mode it is 22.2m tall.
  • Like the other transports, despite having a robot mode Wing Liner Robo doesn't show any particular signs of sentience, even compared to the Supporter Robo. It never speaks or shows any sign of independent action.
  • As with Siren Galley Robo and Wing Liner Robo, Gear Dump Robo isn't mentioned in the 'future' episodes concluding the show.
